I was having the same problem with the "null" string appearing and helix84's fix <https://raw.github.com/helix84/DSpace/88b9d8fe78bb990d777c315abb31dcd823a5a208/dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/authenticate/LDAPAuthentication.java> worked in 3.2.
However, I wanted to let you know that the way the conditionals are set up in the fixed LDAPAuthentication.java <https://raw.github.com/helix84/DSpace/88b9d8fe78bb990d777c315abb31dcd823a5a208/dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/authenticate/LDAPAuthentication.java> file makes it so that LDAP authentication never uses the email_field specified in authentication-ldap.cfg if it's available.

Now when new users are auto-registered via LDAP, if the email string isn't empty it will correctly use it instead of replacing it with only the netid. -- View this message in context: http://dspace.2283337.n4.nabble.com/DSpace-LDAP-authentication-problem-tp4665853p4668861.html Sent from the DSpace - Tech mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ November Webinars for C, C++, Fortran Developers Accelerate application performance with scalable programming models.
